Week 3 completed.. Had an issue with some tendonitis (I’ll chock that up to getting old and being sedentary for a while). It’s nothing a little will-power and ignoring pain won’t overcome. On to week 4. Starting to push the envelope on endurance as the running times are starting to rapidly increase. I’ll let you know how it goes, but right now I am staying positive as I push for the 5k goal.

Finished up week two of my couch 2 5k running program. I am feeling really good during the runs. Now the run intervals start increasing. I am traveling this week so this is going to be another challenge, but if I push myself, I am confident I can pull it off. 7 more weeks to running a 5k again

c25k week 1 complete

Tonight I finished up week 1 of the couch to 5k running program. Now I am no where near my day’s back in the Corps, but I think I am on the right track . The program is designed to start out slow, but is meant to get you up and running a 5k in 9 weeks. Although the program focuses more on completing the workout without stopping and not the speed in which you run, I am shooting for an under 30 minute time. My ultimate goal at the moment is to hit sub 24’s, but we will have to see how I do completing the program.

Wish me luck!!!
